It turns out the AIG had a sub-prime loan division.

Ouch! Looks like Spector has another thing coming if he thinks he's gonna go rogue.

I haven't made that decision yet.

Specter's comment about Coleman was Specter's lame attempt at humor. He fancies himself a comedian. He's out of touch and almost out of time.

I think the Senate shouldn't seat any replacement committee chairs until MN seats Al Franken.

That number is for all AIG companies though and every company wasn't screwing up like the one that held the financial products division.

This makes me happy. Hopefully, he'll lose the primary, too.

And folks are going to tell me that Fredo and Summers didn’t know about this?

The ultimate question is, did Obama know about any of this?

It used to be, before the Russian Revolution, that ordinary Russians would say, "If only the Czar knew about this!" when some atrocity would occur. If only someone would tell the Czar in his ear that these things were being perpetrated among his people, and behind his back, then the Czar would step up and protect them.

They stopped saying it around 1905. The event was the prelude to the Revolution.

Let's be frank. It just may be that Obama knows. If it doesn't play in the media, he can ask for their heads, or go along with it quietly and silently as he sometimes does. I simply cannot believe that he doesn't know all of it or part of it. Bush is the oaf, not Obama.

I really wish you'd take all your financial stuff and put it at a blog, RobM. A warehouse of knowledge, it would be.

If President Obama doesn't fire them for bald face lying they are luckier than these two guys. They lived through some real s@#$;

Speaking of degenerates the Senate woke up and stripped Spector of his seniority on all committees. This was after he suggested that Norm Coleman retain his seat so there would be at lest one Jewish Republican in the Senate. Words fail
